Washer and intermittent wiper will not work on my Mercedes c280 any ideas ?

most likely a bad switch, the turn signal lever/stalk is the switch for all three functions, wiper, wash, turn signal.

Turn signal switch,intermittent wipers not working correctly,washer not working,is all this controlled by the turn signal switch assembly ? or could it be the wiper relay module and washer pump motor,

If the wipers work on normal setting, would not be a relay problem. The intermittent wipers and the washer motor are separate issues-if all on the same stalk, it is probably a bad switch. Hot wire the washer motor with jumper wires to check motor operation. The motor is probably mounted on the bottom of the washer fluid reservoir. Good luck.

Got a 2003 GT convertible, intermittent wipers

The turn signal switch and wiper switch are one unit called a Combo switch. The good news is it is easily changed. After opening the column covers it is held to the side of the column with two torque head screws. You don't have to remove the steering wheel.

Cruise control

My guess is that you have a short in the steering colum.
